During his working visit to the Republic of India, Deputy Prime Minister Dmitry Patrushev of the Russian Federation participated in the opening ceremony of the World Food India 2025 food exhibition. The Deputy Prime Minister also toured the exhibition site and spoke with Russian producers of products presented at the exhibition.
"The Russian Federation is a key supplier of agricultural products to the global market. This is our contribution to strengthening global food security. The Republic of India is our country's leading trading partner in agriculture. In 2024, trade between our countries increased by 12%. In 2025, Russia confirmed its status as the largest supplier of sunflower oil to the Indian market. I hope that this exhibition will help establish new, sustainable contacts between Russian and Indian companies," said Dmitry Patrushev.
